lieutenants in a single room in the fortress
of Ferrol. And today the wind roared by him, shouting in its outrageous
freedom. He was facing into the wind; before him lay Corunna,
its white houses resembling pieces of sugar scattered over the
the slopes. Between him and Corunna was all the open space of
Corunna Bay, flogged white by the wind, and on his left hand was
the narrow entrance to Ferrol Bay. On his right was the open Atlantic;
from the foot of the low cliffs there the long wicked reef of
the Dientes del Diablo - the Devil's Teeth - ran out to the northward,
square across the path of the racing rollers driven by the wind.
At half-minute intervals the rollers would crash against the reef
with an impact that shook even the solid headland on which Hornblower
stood, and each roller dissolved into spray which was instantly
whirled away by the wind to reveal again the long black tusks
of the rocks.
Hornblower was not alone on the headland; a few yards away from
him a Spanish militia artilleryman on lookout duty gazed with
watery eyes through a telescope with which he continually swept
the seaward horizon. When at war with England it was necessary
to be vigilant; a fleet might suddenly appear over the horizon,
to land a little army to capture Ferrol, and burn the dockyard
installations and the ships. No hope of that to-day, thought Hornblower
- there could be no landing of troops on that raging lee shore.
But all the same the sentry was undoubtedly staring very fixedly
through his telescope right to windward; the sentry wiped his
streaming eyes with his coat sleeve and stared again. Hornblower
peered in the same direction, unable to see what it was that had
attracted the sentry's attention. The sentry muttered something
to himself, and then turned and ran clumsily down to the little
stone guardhouse where sheltered the rest of the militia detachment
stationed there to man the guns of the battery on the headland.
He returned with the sergeant of the guard, who took the telescope
and peered out to windward in the direction pointed out by the
sentry. The
